Veil over or under chignon?

Selena, on September 2, 2019 at 3:19 PM Posted in Hair and Makeup 0 9
So I am asking my hair dresser for a chignon, similar to the first picture. Should I put the veil over or under?

I am concerned over how it would even be secured under, and if I need to flip the comb around on my veil to accommodate that, and if so would a plastic or metal comb be better?

    A metal comb should hold better, if I remember correctly! I love the veil over the chignon

    Daughter's was over and the comb was clear plastic. It held fine and was easy to remove after the ceremony.

    Hmm, I’d say if you are putting the veil over your face it should be on top but if you don’t plan on walking down with it over your face then I personally like it underneath.. but it’s a personal preference! 😊

    I prefer the veil over the chignon, especially if you plan to wear it over your face.

    I prefer it over. I have been seeing a lot of pics of brides with it under the chignon and it just looks off to me.
